I agree with the sentiments that have been expressed so eloquently by my classmates. DWS is a special and unique course, and I cannot recall the last time I spent a week in such good company – fascinating and lively students, and enthusiastic and generous lecturers and guests – exploring such an interesting subject. At the risk of being melodramatic, I really fell this course will change my life in some way, though I don’t yet know how. Please do keep in touch, and count me in for “DWS 2.0”.
